Owen Wister
On High
Society
There are some quite detestable
Americans who are freely received
in English society for the simple
reason that they are amusing freaks,
and naturally the American reputa
tion suffers grievously in the
process, according to Mr. Owen
Wister, who tells the fallowing
story:
An American" sat at lunch with a
great English lady in her country
house. Although she had seen him
but once before, she began a con
versation like this:
Did the American know the Van
Squibbers?
He did not.
Well, the Van Squibbers, his host
ess explained, were Americans who
lived in London and went every
where. One certainly did see them
everywhere. They are almost too
extraordinary. t
Now the American knew quite all
about these Van Squibbers. He
knew also that in New York an!
Boston, and Philadelphia, anH in
many other places where existed a
society with still some ragged rem
nants of decency and decorum left,
one would not meet this highly star
spangled family "everywhere."
The hostess kept it up. Did the
American know the Butteredbuns?
No? Well, one met the Butterbuns
everywhere, too. They werevrather
more extraordinary than the Van
Squibbers. And then there were the
Cakewalks. and the Smith-Trapezes.
Mrs. Smith-Trapeze wasn't as ex
traordinary as her daughter the one
f ft , v
Miss Helen Reed, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. W. E. Reed, is one of the
Omaha girls who will return to
spend the summer here. Miss Reed
was graduated June 1 from Princi
pia school, a junior college in St.
Louis. Her parents attended the
commencement exercises. Follow
ing the closing of school Miss Reed
went east with a classmate to spend
two or three weeks. She is expect
ed home about June 21. Miss Reed
will enter Wells college at Aurora,
New York, next fall to complete her
college course.

that put tlie live frog in Lord Mel-
don s soup and of course neither of
them were "talked about" in the
same way that the eldest Cakewalk
rirl was talked about. Everybody
went to thtm, of course, because one
really never knew what one might
miss if one didn't go.
At length the American said:
"You must correct me if I am
wrong in an impression I have re
ceived. Vulgar Americans seem to
me to get on very well in London."
The hostess paused for a moment,
and then she said.
"That is perfectly true."
This acknowledgment was com
plete, and perfectly friendly, and
after that all went better than it had
Cone before. x
The half anecdote is a part of this
one, and happened a few Weeks later
at table dinner this time.
Sitting next to the same American
was an English lady whose conver
sation led him to repeat to her what
he had said to his hostess at lunch:
"Vulgar Americans seem to get on
very well in London society."
"They do," said the lady, "and I
will tell you why. We English I
mean that set of English are blase.
We see each other too much, we are
all alike in our ways, and we are
awfully tired of it. Therefore it re
freshes us and amuses us to see
something new and different."
"Then," said the American, "you
accept these hideous people's invita
tions, and go to their nouses, and
eat their food, and drink their cham
pagne, and it's just like-going to see
the monkeys at the Zoo?"
"It is," returned the lady.
"But," the American asked, "isn't
that awful low down of you?" (He
smiled as he said it.) ,
Immediately the English lady as
sented; and grew - more cordial.
When next day the party came to
break up, she contrived in the man
ner of her farewell to make ' the
American understand she bore him,
not ill will, but good will. San

League Fearless
On Hygiene
' Stand
Dr. Valeria Parker of Hartford,
Conn., chairman of the social hy
Si'ene committee of the National
League of Women Voters, was one
" t. Omaha's distinguished vistiors last
week at . the first congress of the
.ebraska league.
Dr. Tarker's speech on the social
'ygiene platform of the league was
i straightforward handling of the
physiology of sex relations. She
advocated a program of legislation
to abolisli, in as far as law can
r.bolish, prostitution, illegitimacy
:. nd venereal disease, which she
named as the greatest enemies of
the American home today.
Dr. Parker was superintendent of
state police women of Connecticut
:'.uring the war. This position gave
her an opportunity to see. the inner
workings of the army system for the
! rcvention of disease among the
soldiers, and she unhesitatingly now
recommends the continuance of this
program in civil life.
Briefly the women's program as
given by Dr. Parker in Omaha fol
lows: A. That we urge the impartial ad
ministration of all laws and regula
tions, 6ince when they are enforced
more vigorously terwards women
than towards men, it seems to give
governmental sanction to the double
standard, and also, fails adequately
to protect the health of women, who
constitute one-half of the entire
public.
B. That some form of law requir
ing- physical and mental fitness for
marriage as a requisite for procur
ing marriage license be recommend
ed, form ofsuch law to be recom
mended after careful study by the
committee.
C. That uniform marriage and di
vorce laws should maintain through
out the United States, the respective
standards to b recommended after
careful study by the committee.
D. That the social hygiene com
mittee of the National League of
Women Voters believes in the right
of the individual to knowledge of
laws of physical, mental and racial
health, and stands ready to lend its
suport tc public appropriations for
agencies qualified to disseminate
such education.
E. That the social hygiene com
mittee of the National League of
Women Voters shall co-operate with
all recognized agencies established
for the purpose of promoting the so
cial hygiene program by means of
educational, recreational, remedial
and legislative, effort.
"Social Ideals'
In Industry
Approved
In endorsing the industrial rela
tions policies voiced in the Social
Ideals of the Churches, and voting to
study legislation affecting women
and girls, the Y. W. C. A. has com
mitted itself to an intelligent and
sound niethod-of dealing with indus
trial conditions according to Mrs.
Dave H. Morris, wife of a well
known N. Y. lawyer and grand
daughter bf Commodore Vandcrhnt.
"By commissioning the national
board to study legislation affecting
women in industry and, if necessary,
to back such legislation as will make
the 'Social Ideals' effective, the as
sociation is following the spirit of
an historic American tradition and
employing machinery provided by
the constitution for gaining the ends
sought. The association continues
its established policy of seeking in all
actions the co-operation of all con
cerned, employers and employes, in
vestors and consumers. The action
does not commit local associations to
any participation in legislative mat
ters." Mrs. Morris, who is a member of
the national board of the Y. W. C.
A., made this statement recently in
answer to comments on the Y. W.
C. A. endorsement of a social pro
gram, which includes abolition of
child labor, minimum wage, eight
hour day and equal pay tor equal
work.
In Class Play
Miss Lorctta Teasinger,' daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. F. J. lreasinger, was
graduated this week from the Sacrecl
Heart High school. She took the
leading role in the class play, "Every
Graduate," given Thursday evening.
Miss l'easinger will continue her
studies next year at Park Place,
College of the Sacred Heart.

A irift of $100,000 from Tohn D. I
Rockefeller, jr., for the perma

in industrial supervision and em
ployment management for women
at Bryn Mawr was recently an
nounced at commencement exer-
ci?cs at Bryn Mawr. The coruse,
which trains women for the po
sition of supervisors in industrial
plants, is the only one in the
country open to women alone and
demanding college graduation as
a prerequisite. It was started

the war work council of the Y. W.
C. A., under the direct supervision
of the Carola Woerishoffer depart
ment of social economy at Bryn
